Bengtie, sandbox development, how did they run out!

Page 2

"For Her Majesty the Queen..."

She spoke the same words as the children who looked like her, like a machine.

But while she felt proud of her birth, she was more confused than her peers.

"who I am?"

"Why am I sleeping? And why was I born?"

Chapter 2: Patting the head to increase favorability

Shen Yi stared at the screen intently, watching the entire cutscene of Liuying meeting the Queen without fast-forwarding even a second.

I have to say that this cutscene is very exquisitely made. Combined with the Thousand Star Journey and character personal PVs released by Lao Mi, it can be seen that Lao Mi put a lot of effort into making these animations.

This also proves how much they value this derivative work.

As soon as the cutscene ended, the text box responsible for guidance popped up again.

You have successfully created the character: AR-26710

[You can interact with the created character by feeding, touching, and talking to them. As your favorability increases, you can unlock more content.]

[You can check the character's attribute values and favorability at any time by right-clicking the character model or the character portrait in the lower left corner]

Well, these interactive methods are no different from other development games on the market.

Shen Yi operated the mouse and placed it on the firefly model. The model frame immediately showed a light golden highlight.

He aimed at Firefly's head and tapped lightly.

The firefly in the picture tilted its head and looked around blankly.

Shen Yi, who saw this scene, immediately became interested: "Hmm? It seems like you are confused by the sudden touch?

This setting is quite interesting. Unlike other development games, other than the pop-up "Increase in Favorability", there is almost only a single feedback."

He right-clicked the firefly model, and a small box quickly popped up, displaying function buttons such as feeding, dialogue, and attributes.

"Let's take a look at the attributes first."

As he spoke, Shen Yi selected the properties and clicked Open. A new window popped up:

【Name: AR-26710】

【Age: 1 round】

[Height: 170 cm]

[Weight: 51.5kg]

[Equipped Armor: Firefly IV Assault Type]

[HP: 100/100]

[Energy: 95/100]

[Mood value: 50/100]

[Hunger value: 60/100]

[Favorability: 1 heart (1/100)]

Well, the property bar is simple, but it has everything you need and contains all the information you need.

Favorability is one heart, and the following (1/100) should mean that one heart will be added when the favorability reaches 100.

This little bit of good impression, probably from the pat on the head just now?

According to normal logic, being touched on the head for no apparent reason would only feel weird, but after all, it is a game, and patting the head to increase favorability is definitely for the purpose of gameplay.

The slave girl Hitler is a classic example of the setting where patting the head increases favorability.

Shen Yi placed the mouse on Liuying's head and clicked it lightly.

This time Liuying's response was different from just now. She just raised her head, and there was no doubt in her pink and blue gradient eyes, only calmness.

"There's actually different action feedback? That's pretty good. Also, it seems like there's no bonus for favorability this time."

Shen Yi closed the properties page, and the dialog box responsible for guidance popped up again:

[Actions such as dialogue, touching, feeding, etc. will only increase favorability the first time they are performed in each round.]

[In some main storylines and special events, making appropriate choices can also increase your favorability]

[In addition, you can also spend "Xingqiong" to buy props that increase your favorability and give them as gifts]

【Please click the shopping cart icon in the lower right corner to open the mall】

[First time playing, you will receive a welcome gift: 100 Xingqiong]

Here comes the shopping system.

Since it is a game, how can it be without a mall?

Shen Yi opened the mall as instructed, quickly browsed through the products, and then took a deep breath.

Is Lao Mi trying to include the entire two-dimensional circle?

The Sword of Oath, the King's Treasury, the Divine Light Rod, and the Knight's Belt are all fine...

What is the Yama Sword?

No, man, now the major wards are also part of the second dimension?

Looking closely, there was actually a Star Destroyer.

Even the time baggage and the telephone booth have moved in...

Okay, okay, it seems that this is not just sewing the two-dimensional world, but sewing the whole world.

There is a wide variety of goods on display, but unfortunately they are not cheap and good quality. Most of the props that can be named are not cheap.

For example, the time bag costs 3000 Xingqiong.

The cheapest chainsaw sword costs 200 Xingqiong.

From this perspective, the 100 Star Qiongs given by the system as a welcome gift is really too shabby.

However, his methods of obtaining Xingqiong are very limited. Basically, he has to rely on completing achievements, main storylines, and daily tasks to get a few dozen points.

Shen Yi sighed and complained, "It's just like those mobile games that require daily tasks. It doesn't have any special features, but it's not too bad either. It's just okay."

Under the guidance of the teacher, Shen Yi learned some more relevant information.

There is no clear plot timeline in the game, only the next round that can never be completed.

Shen Yi understood Lao Mi's intentions. If the timeline was not blurred, it would be easy for some bugs that were inconsistent with the original work to appear.

To give the simplest example, as soon as Grammer’s capital was built, he created Firefly.

If Grammer were to die one day and Liuying were still alive, she would have to be at least tens of thousands of years old...

Uh, this seems to be consistent with the original work?

All in all, there are no unnecessary operations in this round, so let's move on to the next round.

Shen Yi moved the mouse to the button for the next round and clicked it.

【Buzz buzz buzz! 】

The moment the second round started, a quick and short roar was heard.

The screen camera automatically moved to a grid five squares away from the capital.

The originally bare grid now had a cloud of black mist.

Shen Yi slid the scroll wheel and zoomed in to see——

My goodness, that wasn’t black fog at all, but a bunch of termites!

Dense swarms of bark beetles gathered together, forming a swarm of insects that covered the sky like a black cloud!

A prompt box for the teaching guide pops up:

[Warning: Enemy units are approaching your capital and are expected to arrive in 2 turns]

[You can spend production capacity to produce equipment, combat units, and create trap grids]

[As the technology level increases, the corresponding units will also be upgraded]

No, the barbarians took over in the second round?

I'm so angry that I laugh. Am I still playing in the market?

Jump! Must jump! This time, jump directly to restart!

Shen Yi cursed as he placed the mouse on the Zerg cell. He heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the difficulty was "Level I".

Well, it seems that this should also be part of the novice tutorial.

After all, it's a Civilization-like game, so we have to demonstrate how to conduct sandbox combat.

I have even defeated the god-level "I'm here to see, I'm here to see, Gallic Spear Mercenary" myself. This game won't crush me in the novice stage, right?

Grammer Empire, inside the incubator.

Liuying slowly opened her eyes.

She suffers from insomnia.

Logically speaking, I shouldn't have the ability to suffer from insomnia.

From the beginning, she always felt like someone was touching her head.

She was very confused because there couldn't be anyone else in the incubator.

But what was even more puzzling was that she didn't hate that feeling.

Gentle, warm...

There is a sense of security that one is being cared for.

Feeling safe?

What an unfamiliar word.
